Data Science: An Update on my Goodreads Reviews as of 2020

A few years ago, in 2016, I wrote a brief post on statistics when looking at my Goodreads reviews. A friend's comment recently reminded me of this work and I decided to update it with information all the way up to the present day. Unfortunately, a big limitation has been that, as of earlier this month, Goodreads discontinued their API. I had a lot of code written to access it and generate the plots and had to spend some time rewriting it to use a CSV export of my library. It's not the same, but I was able to reconstruct most of the information. So without further ado, let's look at what we can discover.

Book Review: Rhythm of War by Brandon Sanderson

Brandon Sanderson's Rhythm of War is the 4th book of The Stormlight Archive series. I've been a huge fan of this series since it started and eagerly await each book.
